I enjoy a little bit of everything and I never have a one track mind.H.A.L. email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-8344763283220316287.post-17539672967274747012017-06-14T18:35:00.001-07:002017-06-14T18:35:18.216-07:002017....the year I publish something again...I hope. Yes, I am still writing. I have yet to publish anything in the last two years. Now 2017 is halfway over and things are busy. I am finally wrapping up projects I started as far back as 2014 and the light at the end of that dark tunnel is just a speck, but it is there. One of my bigger projects to be released will be Snitch.
 Snitch is a comic book I have been working on with artists, EF Bald and Bob Bald otherwise known as the Blad Bros. The Balds are super talented and so much fun to drink, I mean work with.
 The story of Snitch is one of revenge and death. The main character awakens covered in fresh scars over most of his body and missing his tongue. He has been stitched back together with no memory of who he was or why he was cut up. Brief glimpses into his past reveal he was cut up by nine men. Each man's face matches with a list of names in a note book. Before he kills a small time hood named Jarrod Killjoy, one of the men on his hit list, Killjoy reveals that he is the Snitch.
 The Snitch can not control his need for revenge and continues, not knowing why, to kill the men on his list. As the body count grows the police and the mayor are involved.
 Snitch has help. A prostitute named Cinnamon Child has become a self proclaimed "Agent of The Streets" (created by EF Bald). She sees how Snitch is cleaning things up. Through her own twisted moral inklings she helps Snitch.
 All in all, I really enjoyed writing a comic book. The script process is similar to film. What makes it difficult is having to convey the story in one frame. Each page is several seconds to minutes of a film. Luckily I have EF and Bob with their twisted artist views of the world. They have managed to pull out of my "dumb words" a story that should be told. I just hope my dumb words can hold up to their art.

As I started to compile notes on the third instalment of my series The Five, I suddenly got the idea to do an anthology of flash fiction of the criminal persuasion. So I sat down and wrote, tweaked and expanded a collection of short crime fiction stories. I now have 12 stories all together.
 At roughly 8,000 words I needed more for the book. Since I love art and all the pulp crime novels of the 1950's-1960's I decided I needed to add original art to each story. I can draw and love to draw. My drawings never match up to what I see in my mind so I usually scrap it. I'm not good enough but I know who is... Each story will have it's own "Cover" page. I am leaving the art up to the artist. So far I have three artists on board and hope to add a couple more before the anthology is over.
 As for the stories...they will be flash fiction crime pieces around the 800 word mark. 800 words count came to be as I wrote with the goal of 700, and I did it for most of the stories. At 700 words the stories were crisp and to the point as flash fiction should be, snapshots into the lives of people you wouldn't normally want to meet. Each story came together and was shelved for the next. Once I had them all I went over them and over them and then once more. A tweak here and add on there. Soon each story began to fill out at the 800-850 mark. I was satisfied with that and I feel the readers will be too.
 So far a few of the titles are (tentatively) Nail Bitter, Dog Walker, Iron that Binds plus a few more.
Here is a sample to wet your crime pallets...

Her eyes, the color of envy, had me frozen. It didn't matter either that the blood on her hands was still wet and dripping at the end of the tire iron.

 As I wrap up this post and the bourbon soaks into my liver I am ever convinced I will draw one of those covers myself. Not sure which one.

P.S. I don't have a title yet so if you have one leave it in the comments below.

Lately I have been writing a lot. I started a new novella that accompanies The Five series and I decided to write a screen play for an idea that came out of some photos my friend and co-author, Jorge Sastre took.
 Our mutual friend, Jose, posed for a photo shoot and Jorge with his sick mind came up some killer (pun) shots. I told him there was a story in there and the two of us got to creating. Jorge was busy finishing photography school and didn't have time to write. I had too much time. So I wrote. Then I did nothing. Blocked.

Jorge and I doing a read through for our book trailer from The Collectors

 Last week a comic book artist, Darwyn Cooke passed away. He was 53 and had done a series of graphic novels, Parker, based on the Richard Stark (Westlake) novels about a thief named Parker. I loved his stylized art with shadow for that noir two tone shading. I was sad to hear he passed. The point I am making is this: I need to do something. Something bigger than I have done before. Something that includes my closest friends. That something would be a film. I dusted off the old script and jumped in.
 Since then I have completed almost two acts. I have also begun to do what I do best, assemble a team. I think its from watching A-Team as a kid and of course I'm Hannibal. Face when I was younger and had hair.
 This is going to be tough and grueling but it's what I want, for me and for my friends.

I saw an Instagram post today that really struck a cord and that cord reverberated all day. It read, "Being a writer is like having homework for the rest of your life." So true! I stopped enjoying "free time" the day I realized, rather than go crazy, I'd write stories. After that day I replaced free time with homework.
 The thing is, as a kid, I hated homework. I believed it to be a tool for lazy teachers who couldn't get it down in the classroom. I have to admit now the practice of doing homework after a day at school is paying off. See, I work at a school now and do my homework at night. For a long time now I have done very little homework. I focused more on thinking about how to get out of it than actually just completing what I could. Call it a muse or call it resorting back to what I know, either way I have begun to write again. Homework has never been so fun.
 In my so far completed trilogy, The Five, there is a three year. Those missing three years had always been planned to be filled in. Well, after a few years it has come time to do that. My coauthor and I have begun finalizing our book "ideas" and finally getting back to doing our homework.
 Keep checking back for updates, chapter samples and the best part, the art that goes along with it.

He says, come to the bar tonight I want you to meet a friend of mine. So of course I go because I know who he is talking about. His friend is Joe Haldeman, author of many science fiction books, most notably Forever War.
 Just before 7, the agreed upon time, I get there and grab a table in the back so I can see most of the place. The waitress brings me my beer and I wait. The manager comes over and says, come with me. We take two strides and stop at the table in front of me. There sitting with his wife and sister-in-law is Joe. I got nervous.
 The introductions are made and I babble on. Surprisingly they ask me to sit. So I sit and continue to babble. Slowly it turns into pretty good conversation. Gay, Joe's wife, couldn't be nicer. It turns out we have similar day jobs so we talked shop while Joe ate his pizza!
 After a while I went back to my table and texted as many people as I could, recounting my time with Joe over and over. It wasn't over just yet.
 As they paid their tab, Gay came over and asked if I wanted a picture with Joe and she also asked for one of my business cards. I couldn't believe it. Thanks to my writing partner, Forrest, I had some on me and we exchanged contact info.
 What a great night. It was so cool to meet a giant in the field of scifi and talk to him like a regular guy. This was no comic con snap a pic for $75 and be ushered off. They made time for me and I greatly appreciated that.

Yeah its a thing, if not it should be. I was talking with a fellow author/creator and totally got what I was saying. I start to write and BOOM I switch up and start writing something different. Anyway, that is not my point today.
 Today I want to write about an upcoming project that is actually getting under way. I have started other comic books in the past with out really getting anywhere. But now I think this one is going to stick. You may have read in previous post my short flash fiction piece, Someone Snitched. Well go back and read it. Then come back and finish reading this post.
 Good. You came back to finish reading this post. So check out the pics of the up coming comic. It should be out Spring of 2016.

 Snitch will be,as you can see, a neo noir comic with limited color. I am very excited for this, as that is the genre I enjoy writing the most. H.A.L.

October 30-Nov 1st and guess what? I will be there selling my latest book, The Five Episode 2 Salvation's Reign. We had such a great time at the Tampa Bay Comic Con last month that we just had to do it again. There was a lot of planning that went into that con working as well as it did. Success, I was told today, is when planning meets opportunity.
 For me, other than selling books, I am most excited at the chance to meet Michael Biehn. He will be there to do a special screening of Aliens. Since Reese, from Terminator is a huge influence on my science fiction, I can only hope I get the chance to meet him. So now I just need to prepare to meet him so when the opportunity is there I succeed.
 After 2050 things are only going to heat up for The Five. We have meetings with a major book retailer that will launch us globally as well as a couple of media outlets that will interview my coauthor and I.
 Now begins the hard part. When book sales and signings reach that point where it becomes a second job. The dream is close, doing this full time, but not there yet. H.A.L.

We sold out of books, met and created great new fans of The Five as well as enhanced some friendships we already had. The atmosphere in Tampa was great. The people were way more laid back than what I have experienced at other cons especially Mega Con.
 When the doors opened in the morning, there was no mad dash but rather a slow saunter in making sure to catch every table of every vendor and artist.

Our table with me not talking

 Forker Media supplied us with a giant 8 foot tall Titainian and plenty of books to sell. The cut out was an eye catcher and people came from all over to check it out. We had two cosplayers tell us they want to try and build the suit for next year. There was also a very energetic man who insisted we make a video game. That would be great. Go ahead.
 There is nothing like meeting people who really enjoy your work to inspire you to move ahead with other projects. While in the process of selling Episode I and II to this guy, another man stepped up and thanked Forrest and I for selling him the book. He said he had started reading it the day before and loved it. The man was I selling to stared at him and I said, "This is really happening. We did not stage this, this guy is for real."
 Out of it all many lessons were learned, what we will do for the next Con and how we will do it. Best of all were the projects we were inspired to do after the con. I am currently writing three graphic novels and one manuscript. There is lots to do but I'm excited to do it. H.A.L.

The title of this post may sound negative or depressing but I assure you it is not. I could go down a philosophical rabbit hole that would leave us chasing our own tails, snared in a morally subjective argument. I am post philosophical queries and see myself in a way ascendant from that. Three lines into it and I'm already tired of talking about this.
 To the point of my post title, I am a writer. I have decided to be one for some time. My success may appear small to some and large to others, again subjective, but I struggle onward to attain a position of comfort. Comfort being, I am my own boss and I seldom keep regular hours. At this present time, I am not. Now we're getting closer to the point I am making. And I say "we" because I am not certain I will ever get to my point.
 Anyway, there are other things I am not as well as a financially secure writer. I am not a motorcyclist. I love them, seldom ride them, and never built one. Yes, I am one of those guys who builds not buys his rides. I saw a bike I really want on Craigslist the other day. It would be a perfect candidate for a brat tracker style build. Oh how I want this bike. Bills, commitments and responsibilities have trumped my moto-card once again. And this brings me to my original point.
 What I want more than to be a motorcyclist, is a writer who does not live by an alarm clock to wake up and go to meetings about meetings then sit in a cube all day. So instead of day dreaming about the wind over my aerodynamic bald head I need to focus on the two graphic novels I have decided to write. Why? Because I am a writer.
 ....more to come on those novels. Read my previous post for sneak peek of one of them.H.A.L.

So I will keep it up here. If you enjoyed the story let me know as I am currently working on expanding it.

 Someone Snitched
 by H.A.L. Wagner

It did not take long to kill the first three men. With the door kicked in one caught a forty-five to the head. The next thug took a bash across the bridge of his nose and then a hard placed boot heel down on his neck. The third guy wielded a knife that ended shoved up under his sternum. The stomach holds a lot of blood.

It was the last guy that took longer to die but that was by design.

The stranger took his time with the rising star of the underworld. He would savor every snap and pop of dislocated and broken bones. This last piece of trash, Jarrod Killjoy, would die slow.

The pocket forty-five cracked and caught Jarrod behind the knee blowing it into a crimson mist. Jarrod fell to the ground. He dragged himself towards the door but the stranger stopped him with a vengeful stomp on the blown knee.

The killer grunted as cartilage and tendons crackled under foot. Jarrod could only gasp short catches of air into lungs that would not fill. Then he whaled in a futile attempt for absolution. The stranger was not granting forgiveness of sins, tonight he was dealing out justice.

"Who are you?" Jarrod demanded to know his executioner, a last request from a sentenced man.

The stranger stepped into the light to show a snarled and seething face. The stranger's insanity hid his face from Jarrod Killjoy's recollection. A tightly balled fist hammered across Jarrod's pale face. The man spit blood and a piece of his cheek to the wood floor.

Jarrod whimpered then forced hard breaths in and out of his lungs to keep from passing out. The stranger enjoyed the man's willingness to suffer through what was about to come.

"Did the Ramos cartel send you? I haven't done anything wrong, I swear. This is all some kind of mistake." Jarrod began to plead. "Who sent you and maybe we can resolve this. I have lots of cash."

The unidentified man gazed upon his heart's desire. His eyes grew large with excited ideas. A four inch serrated boot knife gleamed off what little light penetrated into the fourth floor walk up. He crouched holding Jarrod's left hand tugging on the index finger. The blade sliced into the base of the finger cutting the tendon. Jarrod's screams only fueled the single-minded torturer urging him to cut more digits on the hand.

 Despite the pain, Jarrod's need to know who was to kill him took prominence in his frenzied brain. "If you're working for the Deluca brothers tell them their trucks will be there and loaded with merchandise."

The Stranger wiped the blade off on Jarrod's pleated pant leg. He tucked the knife back in the boot.

"Deluca brothers…" Jarrod mumbled under his breath, presuming too much. His left hand was numb except for the pinky that he could feel twitch. The stranger swiveled his head "no", then stomped on Jarrod's pinky. When he lifted his boot what was left looked like a string of pink dough.

Shock set into Jarrod's body. Shivering he grabbed his left hand at the wrist and cradled it against his chest. With a whimper he said, "I am a very powerful man."

The strangers grin angered the dying man.

"Listen stranger, I have powerful friends. The mayor and half the city police are on my payroll. You wont get far so go hide back in the hole where you came from you sadistic fuck." A swift kick in the nuts took the steam out of Jarrod's building rage.

The stranger thought he might have gone too far too soon, when Jarrod Killjoy slumped over. His pain threshold had exceeded their limits.

Killjoy awoke on the bed. He stared up at a slow turning fan. Lights from the city street flashed below. For less than a second he thought it was a dream until he tried to move. Exposed nerve endings fired pain into his brain brining back the events of the night. The stranger sat in a chair near the door.

"I have money stranger. Lots of it, right here in this apartment. If you just call a doctor I will give you all of it."

The stranger sat in silence.

"Look there in the top drawer of the dresser. There's about a grand there and plenty more. What do you say?" Killjoy motioned towards the phone on the dresser.

The stranger rose from the chair and opened the dresser. He took out a stack of wrinkled bills. The screech of a bedside drawer spun the killer on his heels. The mussel flash of a pocket Derringer lit the room and for a frozen second Killjoy had a smile on his face as the stranger dove for the floor.

Jarrod Killjoy began to laugh. He had survived the hands of the torturer and if the stranger was still breathing would inflict some of his own torment. With the hot barrel in his mouth, he grabbed at the sheets with his good hand, dragging him to the edge of the bed. Peering over, Jarrod fanned the barrel searching for a target.

The stranger's hand shot up clenching Jarrod's wrist and twisted it back forcing the barrel into the man's neck. The second shot of the derringer cracked. Flesh and muscle ripped back. Flesh that remained intact singed from the hot powder.

The stranger rose from the floor. His side now brown as blood soaked his shirt.

Jarrod Killjoy leaned back starring up at the slow turning fan, grasping his neck, holding it together in a futile attempt to cling to life.

A raspy gurgle emerged from the dying man, "Who are you stranger?"

The stranger stood over him, looking into wide, ever darkening eyes. He opened his mouth to reveal a mangle piece of meat that was once a tongue.

A half grin wrinkled Jarrod's face. "It's you…the snitch."

 Check out the awesome work from our collaboration with Bald Bros. Studio on creating book trailers for a couple of my titles. It has been so much fun working with them to develop the scripts and story boards to make these videos. Seeing the characters I created come to life or at least two dimensional is truly amazing to me. There are more to come, but enjoy what has been done.

"I miss U" she last sent to me, but that was a week ago. Since then the phone has been silent in the middle of the night. The only texts that come through are during regular business hours.
 My project development partner was up til 11 pm with me, going back and forth on our script through Adobe Story. "How about this?" a text would come through and another idea would go into production. It is the stuff I live for and the nights I never want to end.
 Now I sit with ideas in my head and it is after 5 AM. Maybe I'll watch the sun rise or take my dog for a hike. Either way I wont be getting any text messages anytime soon.H.A.L.

It couldn't get worse and up was the only way to go, that was until it got worse and I kept going down.
 How do I know I have hit bottom? Well I won't fall into the trap of saying it can't get worse nor will I look only up. Right now all I do is pace back and forth looking down at the clean slate beneath my feet. Make no mistake, this slate was not cleaned by me nor am I watching it as some kind of positive reminder. No. I am watching it as I pace to make sure it does not shatter, partly due to the fact slate is usually not found too deep down. You can draw your own conclusion on that statement. The thing that you do find at the bottom are clichés and people with lame advice, all things you do not want to hear. They say these things because they care. However, if you hit bottom as tell me, I will not say "You can only go up" or anything of that nature. More than likely you get a shrug out of me and maybe I will buy you a beer, unless you are an alcoholic and that is why you have hit rock bottom.
 Slate is usually found in river beds. And the only thing I remember from Heraclitus is change is constant or something like that. And you can never step into the same river twice. So there it is, a way to look to the positive and look up. Should you find yourself at rock bottom, laying over clean slate you know it is only for a moment in time as it is a constant changing world. H.A.L.

So says my 96 year old grandmother. She is right. You think when you are young and face a problem that it, being life, will get easier as you get older. Those problems you faced in your youth do become easier with the choices being more recognizable. However, the problems you face as an adult past your twenties are just as hard to find solutions to as the seemingly easy ones from your youth.
 This holds true for the two characters, John and Luis Solo, in my book The Collectors. In their youth they skipped out on the town that treated them like shit to pursue a more pure life out there, where ever there was located. Out there turned and smacked them in the face sending them back to East Town to where they started. It was good to be home, for the brothers, as they found work and settled into their always falling short lives. The beach community of East Town, filled with high rise casinos, creates a false sense of fortune being one roll of the dice away. And that with just a little more cash, you too can be a whale in a town full of Sharks.
 Well, you can't, not in this town. This town will chew you up spit you out and piss on your corpse. It's not personal, it's not even business, it just is how things are down in the septic vortex that is East Town Florida.
 Sound familiar? Maybe you have been there, maybe you bought salt taffy on the beach and watched the seagulls eat baby turtles. Or a shark bleed a fish until it was nothing but chum.

It was a beautiful sunny day with a light breeze and lower than normal temperatures for this time of year, 83 degrees. I was with my co-author Jorge Sastre and we had three books out for sale, one being The Collectors.

 We had done book signings before but this was our first book fair. We would be sitting down with many other authors, all selling our blood, sweat and tears. On display was years of our lives in 189 pages for $10. The personalities there were all different, yet each of us bonded instantly because we all knew what the other had gone through to get there. But in the back of each of our minds, the other author is the competition. So friendly but watchful eyes scanned the table tops, seeking out a similar book and inspecting, with admirable smiles, though in our minds we were looking for flaws or ideas for our own book covers.
 All that sounds cynical but really it was a good time and I made some great new contacts. Hell, I'll even mention a new book I picked up, Doc Voodoo Aces&Eights by Beating Windward Press. I met the author, Dale Lucas when he came over to our table to complement us on the artwork for The Collectors (thanks Tom Wolfe!)

That being said, we actually did some filming on my book, The Collectors, published by Forker Media. I cannot begin to tell you how much fun it is to be on set of a movie, let alone one based on a book you wrote.
 It all started out with my co-author, Jorge Sastre, and I meeting up with Bald Bros. Studio and developing a script. From there we scouted out locations to film and worked with the director to get the right feel of the film. We were fortunate enough to find several people willing to help. (Side note: When you tell people you wrote a book they say "that's great". When you tell them it will be a movie, they ask how they can be a part of it.)
 Filming was a blast and I got to read lines with some of the actors. We haven't finished yet, but everything is a work in progress.

   My favorite comic book hero (if Frank would even consider himself a hero) is back with a new writer and new artists. I got my grease stained fingers on issue #2 before I could get #1. I stared at the cover for two weeks with out cracking into the new book. I just had to go back to my new favorite comic shop Nerdtropolis and see if they had issue 1 yet. And it was in.
 Let me backtrack a moment. A few months ago I picked up Max Comics hardback of The Punisher. It's a good book, The Punisher as we know and love him. The thing was, it was The Punisher we know and love. I was on the hunt for Punisher Noir but no luck finding it on the shelf.
 The writer, Nathan Edmondson does a great job of breathing new life into Frank Castle while staying true to who he is and why he is doing (what we love) he does. There was great mention in there about The Avengers and the like being too busy to deal with the scum Castle chooses to deal with.
 The artwork is fantastic! Set in sunny L.A., I felt The Punisher might be a little out of place, but not at all. I especially liked the skull mask, similar to the noir book I'm looking to buy. I wont get weird into details on Frank's new looks but I like it. He's not super bulky and his slicked back hair gets in his eyes from time to time. Did I go to far?
 Great book for a deserving character. I can't wait to get my hands on #3H.A.L. Wagnerhttps://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-8344763283220316287.post-11680148843309450682013-11-22T17:37:00.002-08:002014-03-20T19:55:55.829-07:00Solid noir for today: Dead Man Down

Dead Man Down. Collin Farrel and Noomi Rapace <o:p></o:p>

  When the advertising for this movie was playing last year, I remember seeing the star,Farrel, running around shooting. So when I started the movie, its what I expected, however that is not what I got for most of the film.  One hundred and fifty minutes of a noir revenge thriller, that is with the exception of the last ten minutes.  I have to admit that the two main characters, Farrel and Noomi, enthralled me and I actually cared about what they were feeling. <o:p></o:p>

 This movie had it's moments that sent me back to a black and white era all the while increasing my heart rate. I thought the movie was evenly paced with a steady growth of characters considering there is only about two hours worth of film here.  <o:p></o:p>

 I have to say I was disappointed with the ending. (Spoiler ahead) <o:p></o:p>

 The cliché big shoot out was waiting at the end of this movie. I would have liked to see something more simple yet more satisfying. Over all, due to what movies are out there, I have to say this is a modern noir that will leave you content with the two hours you gave it.

 So I'm sitting here watching  Nirvana Live at the Paramount on the music channel Palladia. Standing with little movement other than a hand strumming a guitar, is Kurt in his green sweater. I noticed his jeans are dirty.

 A question I have always held is whether these "performers" (be it rock stars in most cases) dress themselves or does someone else dress them? And how much thought do they put into it? I wonder if the morning of the show, Kurt woke up and put on the same pair of jeans he used to tend his garden. A secret admission here to you now is that I do put thought into what I am about to wear. I've done book signings in the past and I thought about what I wanted to wear. So maybe he did reach for his dirty jeans and say "Tomorrow at the show I'm wearing those." Maybe not.

 I'm not calling Kurt a fake. I'm sure what started as dirty jeans because he played a show straight from work carried over to a time when he no longer had a day job. I remember once going into a prominent clothing store and having a clerk tell me $80.00 oil stained jeans were on sale. The best part was they were stained with "real" oil. I said, "I have a pair just like that. Last weekend I changed my oil pan gasket." The clerk walked away. I never bought jeans there again.

 As the Sci-fi Con season begins and I hit the road to promote my book, The Five, I will be sure to back my bag carefully. I have a pair of dirty jeans I wear when working on my truck, but I doubt I will be signing books in them.

It got me thinking of a similar preview I just saw, Olympus Has Fallen.
 Now this movie stars Gerad Butler as an overly trained Secret Service Agent who will kill all the bad guys while trapped in the White House. Seems very familiar.
 I bet if you spliced both these trailers together you would get the same movie. I don't know why movies with very similar plots get made and released at the same time. A couple years ago we had "No Strings Attached" then later got "Friends With Benefits" Both movies deal with a guy and girl who start out just wanting sex then realize they are in love with eachother.
 Every couple of three years this happens. Tombstone and Wyatt Earp. If we aren't getting the same movie in the same year, we are getting more recycled crap. I'm just going to stop right now before I go into the Hollywood remake laziness. I even read an article based on a rumor that Twilight was getting a re-boot. But don't puke just yet, its only a rumor.
 There are fresh ideas out there just waiting to be discovered by the right producer/director/actors. We just have to wait or do it ourselves. H.A.L.

I have mostly used this blog to look at crime fiction and of course my random thoughts.

 I really enjoy the two genres. My first novel, Division Six is a great mix of both crazy science fiction and a classic PI tale. I enjoyed writing that book and hope to eventually finish the series.

I used to skim articles on cramming writing into your schedule and I used to scoff. I could not stop writing; at work, in the car, on my phone, at home, I wrote all the time. Writing was my schedule and everything else came second. I missed a lot of social events, not that I care.
 These days it is much different. I have teamed up with Forker Media and have taken on different tasks for them as well as started other projects. Now I sit and stare at a blinking cursor wondering and wandering. In the last few months I have written a short story that has since been rejected and I have started a new novel that I have not touched in six weeks. Also a screenplay was started and ended, I just need 100 pages of filler. Things get in the way.
 Recently I posted about my book signing. Everything went well but prep work for that needed to be done and a visit from my friend and co-author had us playing X-Box more than plotting the sequel to The Collectors.
 Writer's block? I don't know. I have plenty of unfinished manuscripts and short stories that need editing sitting in files on my computer. I have thoughts and notes on existing manuscripts that need to be entered and my car is littered with note pads and scribbled story ideas. I just can not sink my teeth into anything enough to block out the world and write.
 Most of my writing comes and goes in emails back and forth with cover artists, reviewers/interviewers and co-authors for scripts already written. I'm hungry, I can feel it in my brain, that craving to burn up a keyboard with my thoughts and bring life to new characters.H.A.L.

I was in luck that Fountain Book Store is in my current home town, RVA.
 My co-author Jorge grabbed the first flight out of Daytona Beach and came north to a snowy Saturday night. It was a treat for him.
 Our scheduled signing time was from 2-3 pm. Fountain Books was great about scheduling. There were plenty of authors coming to share their books. Fortunately or not, we were so busy talking to customers that I did not get to talk to the other authors. At the two o'clock time slot we are all crime authors.
 I have to admit I was nervous and my signature came out a little wobbly. I did not expect to be so nervous. I was good right up to until we walked through the door.
 Over all it was a great day and we sold some books.

As promised, here is our 'Common IR35 Errors' part 2.
Questions and queries concerning contract compliance are always difficult, as having a good contract in place is obviously so important. As many will already know, in the event of any IR35 activity, the contract will be the first port of call, thus negative wording can have detrimental effects on the outcome of a potential enquiry.
Having said this, it must be made clear that IF the working practises are in fact compliant, and this is confirmed by an end client, then this can outweigh any written agreement in place. Beware however, as many agencies will not correspond with anyone who does not have a passed review, regardless of how justified their working practises may be.
(As a recommendation, if your contract is poor and cannot be rectified, then it is highly advisable that a confirmation of working arrangements is put in place directly with your end client. Although this is not a sure fire way of justifying a failed contract, it can hold significant weight.)
Look out next week for the third common IR35 error.

This past week I had the opportunity to share part of my testimony with a couple of young friends. I was indirectly asked, "How did you come to know the Lord?" and "How have you grown in your walk with Him?".
I explained that although I have been a Christian as long as I can remember, God used His word and His ways to chase me down with His love in a deeper way in my mid-twenties. At that time I was wrestling with a lot of things that kept me disgruntled and discontent: my husband was an orthopedic resident pushing hours that are now no longer legal in the medical world; I had two toddlers, but also experienced two miscarriages; we had no money; and personally, I was dealing with a shattered dream of the recent past, and another rock-my-world present trial. Quite frankly, I was depressed, and the "woe is me" mentality ruled my life.
But somewhere during that time God sent a faithful friend along my path; after Jill Gardner walked life with me for a while and quietly listened to my woes, she then tenderly spoke timely words that penetrated my wounded heart. She simply said, "Chris, do you know that you can choose joy?". My initial reaction was, "Are you kidding me? Do you not see all this calamity going on in and around me! I deserve to be unhappy!" (skewed thinking!). But in my soul, I knew that she spoke truth. I am thankful to say that these words were the beginning of a life changing perspective for me; now over two decades later, no matter the circumstance, I remind myself, "Chris, you can choose joy".
Over the years of putting this not-so-easy decision into practice, I've learned how to get-to-joy faster.
The first thing is not to complain or grumble. If I'm in the midst of a trial, it's not a surprise to God; it is actually in this selected place that He has called me so that I can depend on Him in a deeper way. He will show up. But I must choose not to quench His spirit with my disgruntled or disbelieving heart. Having this attitude kills joy. God tells me to do all things without grumbling or disputing (Phil. 2:14).
The second thing is to be thankful. Replace the "Woe is me!" with "Wow is the Lord!". Sometimes I just say thank You, thank You, thank You, thank You, over and over and over again, just so I won't focus on my seemingly negative situation. Thank Him for whatever comes to mind concerning who He is (merciful, compassionate, powerful, good, wise…) and you will be busy all day long with thankfulness growing in your heart. Having this attitude births joy. It is good to give thanks to the Lord, and to sing praises to Your name, O Most High; to declare Your lovingkindness in the morning, and Your faithfulness by night (Psalm 92:1).
I am forever grateful for my friend of the past that challenged me to choose joy. And I am praying that my young friends will likewise, choose joy today--not sadness, nor even happiness, but the joy that is found only in Christ. It's a decision that requires determination and perseverance through His abiding spirit. Jesus is joy. Choose Him.
Do not be grieved, for the joy of the Lord is your strength. Nehemiah 8:10

Hacker Who Stole Nude Pics Of Jennifer Lawrence, Kate Upton Sentenced To 18 Months
Prosecutor's say a Pennsylvania man used a phishing scheme to gain access to celebrities phones.
The Lancaster, Pennsylvania man who hacked into the phones of such female celebrities as Jennifer Lawrence and Kate Upton has been sentenced to 18 months in prison. Ryan Collins, 36, was convicted for felony violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, a Thursday press release from the U.S. Attorney's Office said. He was taken into custody at his sentencing and will immediately being serving his year and a half sentence.
In a plea deal, Collins admitted to hacking at least 50 Apple iCloud and 72 Gmail accounts between November 2012 and September 2014, including those of a bevy of young, beautiful celebrities. According to prosecutors, he used a "sophisticated phishing scheme," emailing his victims under the guise of Apple and Google and obtain their usernames and passwords.
Collins stole cellphone photographs, including intimate nude pics, from such celebrities as Lawrence, Upton, Kirsten Dunst and Gabrielle Union among others. None of his victims, however, were named in the case, nor do prosecutors believe that Collins was the one who uploaded them to the internet. Speaking to Vanity Fair magazine soon after the photos were leaked in late 2014, Lawrence said the hacking was not a scandal, but a sex crime. "The the fact that somebody can be sexually exploited and violated, and the first thought that crosses somebody's mind is to make a profit from it," said Lawrence. "I can't imagine being that thoughtless and careless and so empty inside."

I got this Etude House Play Therapy Soft clay Pack in a swap with my fellow blogger Moi Sanom of 35th of May. She offered this to me because this product targets my skincare concerns like enlarged pores and oily skin. I love mud or clay masks so I was very excited to try this out.
This clay mask, containing Brazilian forest clay, is a smooth and creamy greenish substance, quite thick in consistency, yet easy to apply. This pack differs from other clay masks I've used slightly as it doesn't set or dry out completely if you put it on for the time prescribed. It's also easier to remove as it doesn't turn gooey. It made my face feel soft and smooth, but didn't have the exfoliating, pore tightening or sebum controlling properties of other mud masks (like the Innisfree Jeju mus mask or the one from The Body Shop).
This is a nice pack, but if I were to choose The Body Shop Seaweed Ionic Clay Mask would be my pick.

Making Sure You're Comfortable All Throughout Your Visit
For our patients who get very nervous, our Crowley dentists can provide you with sedation options to minimize your stress.
Below are some of the types of sedation we offer:
- Nitrous oxide- Most commonly known as laughing gas that can calm your anxieties while you're awake. This type of sedation is perfect for minor dental procedures. It has no known side effects and dissipates quickly as soon as your treatment is over.
- Oral conscious sedation- This type of sedation is used for treatments that take a while to complete such as root canals and tooth restorations. Patients will be advised to take the oral medication an hour before their treatment and to bring someone who can drive them home after their visit.
- IV sedation- This is a combination of pain relievers and sedatives that are delivered through an IV. This type of sedation is for patients who would rather not remember a thing about their dental procedure. While the medication induces an altered state of consciousness, patients usually recover at a short amount of time.

Day 38: The Joy of Being Late
"I'm in a hurry to get things done. I rush and rush until life's no fun."
-- Alabama
I used to get so mad at my older brother when he could drive and I couldn't because he would get us to school with just enough time to sprint to class. I would get mad at my family when they made me late for church or a banquet, or going to eat. My father would get upset when we were late leaving for vacation. I don't think that my family is that weird, though. I think there are lots of people who get upset because of being late.
There have been times that I ended up being very happy that I was late as well. A few examples would be when my girls and I were late heading to their school. We left five minutes after we intended to and missed being at the right spot for a wreck... by five minutes. I was late in taking off from a red light not long ago. The guy behind me honked and gestured something about me being number 1 right as a pickup barreled through the red light. I would have been hit if I had been on time. I can think of at least half a dozen times that being late made me safe and allowed me to continue being joyful. I can also think of 20 or more times that me being upset about being late wouldn't have made any positive difference at all.
I am sharing this a day late because there are times when we need to just slow down and soak up the joy of being alive. We need to let go of the stress of trying to move things forward or being the first and just remember to be. Your homework assignment today is to take your time. Stop and smell the proverbial roses. And, be happy that you have the chance to keep on smiling.
To Your Success,
Jody Holland

From the New York Times:
WASHINGTON — The sleepy United States senators thought they were done voting. But then, around 1 a.m. on the Saturday before Memorial Day, Senator Rand Paul, Republican of Kentucky and presidential candidate, marched spryly to the Senate floor to let it be known that, no, he would not agree to extend the federal government's bulk collection of phone records program. Not even for one day.
With that, Senator Mitch McConnell, a fellow Kentucky Republican who only a few hours before was ebullient with the passage of a major trade package, was reduced to ordering his colleagues back to Washington next Sunday to try again to prevent the act from expiring.
The unexpected legislative collapse on the Senate floor, and Mr. McConnell's morose departure, pointed up the quandary that has emerged since Republicans took control.
They have had successes, like passage of the hard-fought bill that could pave the way to the largest trade agreement in a generation and a bill to give Congress a voice in the Iran nuclear negotiations. And more senators are allowed to try to influence legislation through amendments, which Mr. McConnell's Democratic predecessor as majority leader, Senator Harry Reid of Nevada, prevented.
But as senators raced for the airport on Saturday after a six-week session that ended in disarray, they left behind a wreck of promises made by Mr. McConnell on how a renewed Senate would operate. Mr. McConnell has found himself vexed by Democratic delaying tactics he honed in the minority, five presidential aspirants with their own agendas and a new crop of conservative firebrands demanding their say.

AUSTRALIAN OPEN LIVE: Andy Murray v Roger Federer - follow all the action
Follow Sportsmail's coverage of Andy Murray's quarter-final match as he faces 17-time Grand Slam champion Roger Federer.
The Scot needed four sets to get past Stephane Robert in the last round while Federer is yet to face a proper challenge, beating Frenchman Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in straight sets on Monday.
Novak Djokovic's surprise defeat to Stanislas Wawrinka on Tuesday shows that no-one is a safe bet anymore, and the winner of this match will go on to play Rafa Nadal in the semi-finals.
Our tennis correspondent Mike Dickson will be providing insight from Melbourne Park and we'll keep you up-to-date with all the latest results from the first Grand Slam of the season.
Host commentator
As for Murray, that was gutsy and courageous but his back just wasn't quite what it needed to be.
I'm sure he'll get himself fit for the Davis Cup against USA next week, and he can be proud of how he put up a fight against a Federer who really did roll back the years.
That's all from us. I hope you've enjoyed our coverage of the Australian Open and will come back for more over the coming days.
After serving for the match and then missing two match points in the third set tie-break, Federer showed his true class and was physically in a much better state than Murray by the end.
He'll have to try and get through Rafa in the semi, with Wawrinka playing Berdych in the other.
It's now or never. Murray's body may not be what it was but he rockets a winner on the first point and then forces Federer to miss with one up the line to make it 0-30. How much more drama does this match have to give?
But Federer storms back and with some big serves brings himself a third match point which he takes with an ace.
It's a huge game, with Murray hurting and Federer potentially just two games from winning the match.
Three mid-court forehands, three missed forehands... All from Murray. Three more break points for Federer.
A swinging serve saves the first, and a pacy ace gets rid of the second. But not the third. Federer brings Murray in with a drop shot and although Murray gets it back, Federer easily plants a winner into the court.
An annoyed Murray looks very unhappy after a correction call from the line judge. He then seems to half fall over. Not too sure what that was about.
Federer looks tired but Murray's body appears to be one stage from falling apart.
This match really is Federer's for the taking now. The Swiss is surely going to start tucking in to these serves at one point and he looks the younger man movement wise right now.
Murray is very tentative around the baseline now. A grimace here, a frown there. Telling signs all is not completely well. His back hasn't been tested like this since the surgery.
Federer catches him flat-footed and forces the game to deuce with a forehand winner. It feels like we've had enough deuces for a lifetime in this set but the pair battle on and Murray comes out on top, just. Fine margins and everything...
Going to be interesting to see how Murray reacts to playing an intense and long match. He has not really done this since the Wimbledon final. Federer has played 58 points at the net and won 43 of them.
Credit to Murray, who is visibly knackered (and for good reason), but manages to run down a drop shot early in the game.
Federer isn't coming to the net that often anymore, perhaps out of tiredness, perhaps from loss of focus. His serve is just as strong though.
How the players won't want Murray's service game to last 20 minutes this time.
And it doesn't. In fact it's just as quick as Federer's was before the sit down. He holds to love but after just four games in this set we've already had 33 minutes.
From ten deuces to Federer breezing through his serve to love.
It's been the same throughout the whole match bar the end of the third set. A much needed sit down as both are breathing hard.
A brilliant return from Federer off the Scot's first serve and he takes the impetus in the game. Murray tries a drop shot but Federer pounces and it's 0-30. It gets even worse as Murray finds the net and Federer has three break points.
A well worked point finished with a drop shot saves the first, and a mistake helps him with the second. Murray guides his shot into court left by Federer and he saves the third break point.
After a constant stream of deuces, ten in total, and six break point chances for Federer, Murray finally manages to hold. He's got some will to win.
That was by far the longest game of the match and surely it's got to carry a load of momentum.
Everyone got their breathe back? Right then, let's go again.
A reinvigorated Murray bounds from his seat and he's happy to see two bad mistakes from Federer to give him a 15-30 lead. He even has a chance to get the next point but hits a forehand wide.
An important hold for Federer who finishes the game with a drop shot. A quick drink, and we'll be straight back out.
That may be the difference between being a 26 year-old player and a 32 year-old player.
When it came down to it Murray showed the much stronger nerve and Federer now has to stew about that.
How about that! Murray plays safe and Federer is the one to go long. What a gutsy turnaround.
Super, super forehand from Murray who has suddenly started hitting big. That one caught the line. Now a set point for Murray!
He's done it again! Plays a huge forehand into Federer's backhand and the Swiss can't get it back.
One match point saved! Murray plays some big forehands, making all his fans nervous, but in the end it's Federer who falls down, hitting wide. Second match point...
First serve into the net but on the second return Murray just goes long with a backhand. He challenges, but no success. Two match points Federer.
Pressure on Federer now. He hits the net and Murray has to come and attack.
Murray keeps himself in it. Has to hold again...
Another big serve wide from Federer and Murray only finds the net.
Murray needs to capitalise on the second serve here. He can't afford to drip too far behind. He had so many big forehands but Federer's defence was stunning. Murray goes long.
Murray strays long and Federer has the first mini-break of the tie-break.
Murray goes down the line with a forehand that forces Federer to hit up. Easy smash home for the Scot.
This time it is an ace from Federer. Challenged by Murray but it caught the line.
Nearly an ace from Federer but called wide late. On the second serve Murray over-hits the baseline.
Great serve and follow-up forehand from Murray. Top way to begin a tie-break.
More screams of annoyance from Murray and he can't do what he did in Federer's last service game. An easy hold to love for the Fed and it goes into a tie-break.
Local TV been showing close ups of Kim Sears showing anxiety through the points. Hardly surprising as her beloved has been put through it tonight. Only question remaining is about Federer's nerve when he gets close to the tape.
Murray appeared to get fired up by that disputed Federer scoop, although it looked a fair call to me. Like those low catches in cricket the camera can lie. Probably a bigger factor was Federer's nerves in serving for it. Are we going to see a momentum change too late?
There's no point breaking if you can't back it up, Andy. There, that's my advice for the day.
He goes 30-15 ahead and Federer looks nervous for the first time. Some brilliant groundstrokes end in the Swiss reaching for a ball he can't return and Murray will have at least a tie-break.
Murray having some words at that change-around on whether Federer's crazy lob actually didn't bounce twice. The replays show it definitely stayed up.
Murray starts well, going up 0-30 before being pegged back by a big serve from Fed. The suddenly Federer goes long and Murray has his first break points of the match.
Such tension now. Federer saves the first but goes over the baseline on the second and MURRAY BREAKS!!!
Murray needs to hold here or his Australian Open is virtually finished.
It doesn't begin well though. Federer sprints down a drop shot and somehow lobs it over Murray who must only be a couple of feet away from him. Then a backhand floats long and it's 15-40. Danger alert time!
It's a tense rally as Murray isn't looking to play any big shots and pays the price, eventually hitting the net. Federer to serve for the match.
Utterly majestic. Three net approaches and three easy points.
Murray follows it up by guessing right and smashing a return into the corner. He then grabs the next after taking the net himself and aiming a smash at Federer( perfectly legal, if not a bit harsh).
But all his hard work comes to nothing and Federer stays calm and holds.
Wonderful backhand shot which Federer at the net (again) has no chance in returning. No break points this time as Murray gets some cheap ones behind big serves. Is he finally settling, two hours into the match.
I don't want to tempt fate at all, but if Murray can somehow win this set we might see a changing of the tides. He's changed his shirt for one thing, playing in white now not blue.
More net visits from Federer and Murray just can't get himself into enough rallies.
How Murray can win this set, I just don't know...
Come on, Muz, let's at least hold your own serve now.
Federer's been to the net a whopping 34 times already, with Murray on 12. But the Scot ghosts in twice himself and that's one of the easier holds he's had all night.
Nothing much to shout about in this Federer service game either. He races through it to love and Murray just can't do a thing when he doesn't have the balls in his hands.
Murray is clinging on. Tennis is a problem-solving sport, and so far he has not had the solutions to this excellent turn-back-the-clock performance from Federer.
Fed's first serve percentage has dipped to 67, which gives the Scot some hope.
It's noticeable the Scot is taking aim at Federer's backhand now in an attempt to gain any possible advantage. He's even using the inside-out forehand, not one that's his favourite.
There's more cries of frustration, though. Something along the lines of: 'the forehand's s*** Andy!'
He saves a break point at 30-40 as Federer miscues a lob and then takes the advantage with an ace. He hasn't hit enough of them but at least the third set is still on serve.
Murray still hasn't had a break point on the Federer serve throughout the whole of the first two sets. He's not going to get back into the match without some penetration there.
But how will it happen? Not with airy-fairy forehands like he's still hitting. Put your back into it, man!
Any options then? Here's one, doing some serve and volleying himself!
It works wonders once but the next time he comes in Federer's shot is at his feet when he gets there and finds himself 15-40 down.
A big serve and forehand save the first break point and a backhand error from the Fed helps him with the second.
Murray saves another break point with a delicate drive volley at deuce but he's really hanging in there. He can't afford to be broken so early in the third.
Right on cue comes a massive serve and a forehand winner. Phew.
Murray nearly prised the door open there and it will be hugely frustrating that he could not quite force the break. There is still life in this and that was a lot closer than the first set, when he was caught cold.
Not sure Federer can keep it at this very high level throughout, but then he is Roger Federer.
The biggest game of the match so far and it's starts rather peculiarly.
Murray somehow reaches a ball and hits it far into the air, only for it to come down on the baseline. Federer, thinking it would drop out, only hits it at the last minute and Murray powers a winner down the line. Good start, 0-15.
But that's where it ends for Murray. At 30-30 there's a 20+ shot rally where he misses a backhand and it's curtains from there. He's really staring down the barrel now.
It's the 4th against 6th seed here but it's looking more like the 24th against 6th.
Murray just needs to get through this game and force Federer to serve the set out again. He shanks one off the frame and at 30-30 it isn't looking too promising.
But he finds a big first serve when he needs it and stays in the set.
We heard an oath there from Murray. He's making a few inroads on the Federer serve and trying to be more aggressive on the return but it's not enough. Federer remains very impressive and it's getting to the Wimbledon champion.
Federer comes up from his chair with new balls in his hand.
This is a different Roger to the one we saw last year, that's for sure. He races in and hits a drive volley to help win a point.
Murray shouting at himself again during the game which as we know isn't a good sign. But anything to get him going soon will do now.
Here's a stat for you...
Federer has currently got his first serve in 81 percent of the time, and Murray is down at 57 per cent.
It's not all down to the serve though. Another net approach from Federer and he plays a perfect volley, despite losing his footing at the last moment. A bit of genius and luck.
Murray's holds his nerve and his serve to stay in the set (just about).
Murray going for his groundstrokes a bit more to try and disrupt Federer. The Scot furious about losing that game, admonishing himself at the changeover.
Another lob from Murray pays dividends and he manages to scrape the game to deuce. The first time Federer has been forced back that far.
But the Swiss is just so strong behind his serve. He holds and Murray hangs his head.
Sometimes you can only marvel at Roger Federer.
He loses the point, but plays a magnificent backhand when the ball seemed past him which crept over the net by a matter of millimetres. Absolute precision.
At a crunch point on 30-30 Murray has a forehand he just has to put away but slams it straight into the net. I'm afraid, Andy, that's just not good enough. Federer breaks again.
A couple of unforced errors and Murray has a glimmer of hope at 15-30. This was where Federer broke in the first set...
Not to be, though. Murray guessed right on a serve to his forehand but only found the net. He can't afford to miss those shots.
Early signs in second set that Murray is trying to take more of the initiative. He certainly needs to do something to disrupt the glorious rhythm of Federer. Stadium finally full with Rod Laver himself in the Presidential Box.
One tactic to battle against net-play is the lob, and Murray plays it to perfection. It's cruelly equalled out, however, as Federer plays a 1 in 100 shot which catches the line out of Murray's reach.
He's not playing his best, but he holds and keeps his nose in front in this set.
A tempter from Murray draws the 17-time Grand Slam champion into the net and Federer drifts long. But don't get your hopes up, folks. Murray just can't get himself deep into his opponents service games.
A big 'COM'MON' from Murray as he wins the opening point of the second set. Can it be a starting block for a comeback?
Federer waste a challenge but doesn't dwell on it for long, hammering a forehand past the Scot's defences.
At 30-30 we have the point of the match so far! Murray hits a conservative volley and Federer tries a lob in response. Murray hits a backhand smash and the points goes on for another ten shots before the Fed finds the net. An important early hold.
It's like we're in a timewarp and gone back six years with Federer, this is vintage stuff although Murray has been relatively conservative.
Clearly the Federer back is in better shape than last season.
Murray chases down a Federer smash but can't get the drop shot over the net. He can't cope with Federer's constant running to the net or power-laden forehands. That's the first set gone and he needs to change something fast.
One of the only unforced errors from the racquet of Federer and Murray will prolong the set and make his opponent serve it out. If there was a moment to start getting in the groove, Andy, now would be the time...
Massively impressive start from Federer, who really does look like he is turning the clock back.
Beautifully clean ball striking so far and judicious forays to the net. Murray is going to have his work cut out. Wimbledon chairman Philip Brook was appropriately on time in his seat but many others are late.
The first challenge of the match from Murray but he's unsuccessful (no surprise there) as Federer's shot caught the baseline.
The Swiss is certainly coming into the net more, probably down to the impact of Stefan Edberg in his camp. He wraps up another game and is just one away from the set.
A fantastic passing forehand from Murray gets him into this game and can hopefully spark some sense of urgency.
Federer waltzes to the net and feigns playing a drop volley bur actually plays it onto the baseline. Murray, half-foxed, can't get it back into court and only stays in the game with another passing shot, this time off the backhand.
Quite an important hold from the Scot. He's being put under serious pressure here.
Any hopes of a quick Murray retaliation seems unlikely after two big un-returnable serves. Federer finishes with an ace out wide and after 15 minutes he is odds-on favourite for the first set.
The crowd is still filling in here to the players' annoyance. Finally they find their seats to a round of applause from everyone else in the Rod Laver Arena.
A first ace for Murray as he swings one wide out of the reach of Federer's forehand. You get the feeling he needs as many first serves as he can get today.
The Swiss gets onto the front foot and Murray's defensive skills can't keep him out, putting the score at 15-40 and giving Federer two break points.
A let on Murray's second serve only increases the tension and then he goes long. Break Federer.
The flowing brilliance of Federer's serve is still something to behold after all these years.
He hits an ace plumb into the corner of the serving box and is up 40-0 before you can blink. Murray puts away a volley on the next point but gets wrong-footed and the players get their first sit down.
Not a clever start from Murray who hits a backhand wide under no pressure whatsoever and is 0-30 down.
But some uncharacteristic errors from Federer's forehand gift Murray a way back into the game and were all-square on serve.
Federer gets us underway but Murray is the first to get a point on the board with a wonderful backhand winner.
But that's as much as he gets. Federer bangs down a couple of big first serves and he's the man to get on the scoreboard.
This is quite unusual – a feature tennis match that looks like it is going to make a very prompt start.
It's a sunny but very mild early evening here with a bit of wind around, and the punctual beginning seems to have taken some of the punters by surprise as many are not in their seats yet.
A big test for Murray, and the first major one he has had since back surgery in September, which is why the bookies make Federer marginal favourites for this match. It is hard to pick but that may be ungenerous to Murray on this court which he likes – even though it is quicker than last year which helps Fed somewhat.
Murray will not give him the free points that Tsonga did in the last round, and that may be telling.
I have to admit that I'm extremely excited about this one. Neither player has been really tested so far, and we really don't know what's likely to happen.
Murray's run to the quarters has included beating Go Soeda (Japan), Vincent Millot (France), Feliciano Lopez (Spain) and Stephane Robert (France).
As for Federer, he has beaten James Duckworth (Australia), Blaz Kavcic (Slovenia), Teymuraz Gabashvili (Russia) and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga (France).
Incredibly Murray has the upper hand when it comes to their head-to-head record as he leads 11-9.
As mentioned, the pair have played twice in Melbourne before. The Scot lost in straight sets in 2010 Aussie Open final, at that stage his second loss in a slam final, but he went some way to avenge that defeat last year as he won their five-set duel in the semi-finals.
Sportsmail's Tennis Correspondent in Melbourne Mike Dickson has previewed today's game and the rest of the draw.
It's also a battle of the ex-pros as Ivan Lendl and Stefan Edberg take opposite corners for the first time.
They played each other 27 times throughout the 80s and 90s, with Lendl claiming 13 victories and Edberg 14.
They met three times at the Australian Open, with Lendl winning twice. It's the third meeting here between Murray and Federer, so who creep ahead today?
Rafa Nadal has sealed his spot in the last four and is awaiting the winner of this match in a Friday semi-final.
Novak Djokvoic, however, will not be featuring having lost his first match in Melbourne since 2010 when he was dramatically beaten by Stanislas Wawrinka 9-7 in a fifth set yesterday.
He'll face Tomas Berdych who took out fourth seed David Ferrer.
10 days into the Australian Open and Andy Murray's bid for his third Grand Slam is about to get real.
After winning four rather tame affairs, he now has the huge task of getting past a rejuvinated Roger Federer who is yet to lose a set in this year's tournament.
But forget questions over his back surgery and lack court time, there'll be no quarter given by the Scot the moment that first serve is hit.
